Queen Victoria’s Amour Secret

The Year-god’s Daughter

 

John Brown: see below for attribution

I’m over at Suzanne Adair’s blog today, musing about Queen Victoria’s well-documented friendship with John Brown, the less-well-known Contagious Diseases Acts of the nineteen-hundreds, and my personal hero Josephine Butler, who fought to protect women when hardly anyone else bothered. Please pop over and leave your thoughts. I’m giving away a signed copy of The Year-god’s Daughter to someone chosen by Suzanne (U.S. only.) Here’s the link.
